Parents need to know that this '90s sitcom looks at life on earth from a unique point of view. There's a bit of racy content -- expect some sexual innuendo (most of which will go over the head of younger viewers), some hugging and kissing, and, in later episodes, images of men and women in bed together -- but overall it's on the tamer side. The show's slapstick brand of humor incorporates some slapping and hitting (like repeatedly banging someone's head with a frying pan for laughs), and there's some mild language ("damn," "hell") and drinking.
